On this episode, the Boca Boys are discussing one of the greatest Portuguese soccer players to have played the game, Luis Figo!

He started his soccer career at Sporting CP, and played for major clubs Barcelona, Real Madrid and Internazional. He also played for the Portuguese national team, and helped lead Portugal to a Euro Cup final in 2004, and a World Cup semi-final in 2006. Now, retired from soccer, Figo is doing some interesting things. What things exactly? Listen to find out!

Every Portuguese family has a little black rooster, with heart designs, sitting somewhere in their home. Have you ever wondered what it is, or what it means? Luckily, your favorite Boca Boys got you covered and will teach you all you need to know, and more, about the Galo de Barcelos.

Welcome back guys, hope you didn’t miss us too much. We are all back, rejuvenated and ready to rock Season 2 of the Cala A Boca Show, starting with a second look at Matanças!

In this episode we revisit episode 1, and see if we remember exactly what we talked about, discuss alternatives to pig meat, and pose the idea of a Matança themed restaurant! Good idea? Bad? Let us know!
